Catching up....Gage's bday, Halloween, and more!

 Gage during our class Halloween party...this must have been the safest place for him to eat, with all the other kiddos running around!

 The beginning of the Halloween festivites...the Moore parade.

 Fall festival at church

 Sleeping beauty, the Red Baron, and Strawberry Shortcake

 Happy 1st birthday, Gage!

 The Race for the Cure (me and the Rudd's)

 Mike couldn't run because of a leg injury, so he had babysitter duty (our 3 plus the 2 Rudd kids).  I think he had the harder job!

 Zoo with the Slovinsky's.

 This is how spoiled our dog is....he gets personal umbrella service to go pee in the rain!

 Sophie's school....this is where she hangs her backpack.

 Mike went on a backpacking trip with some friends while I was in Virginia visiting my sister.  They hiked tons, slept through a pretty strong Oklahoma rain storm, and survived the spiders! (See pic below...)

Summer fun

Happy birthday, Elsie!

This post is really late, but I was having trouble posting a new entry and just now had time to go back and try.  So, the was supposed to be posted on Elsie's birthday.  Better late than never!

Elsie turns 3 today!!!! Pictures of her big birthday party are to follow....(as soon as I have time! :))

The big wheel race and a rodeo!

Our city had a second annual Big Wheel Race for kids a couple of weeks ago. Sophie LOVES her big wheel and is very fast on it, so we signed her up! It was cute watching her race with the other kids, and if those bigger boys hadn't been in her heat, she surely would have won!

Stretching before the big race

Dad and Elsie were Sophie's "pit crew." Elsie kept leaning up to Sophie and telling her, "Go really fast, Sophie!"

We also went to a "rodeo" at the state fair park with the Slovinsky's. They had kids activities like learning how to lasso and shooting pretend guns at a target from a "horse."

Bailey and Gage...they were content sitting in their strollers and trying to pull each other's hair!

Our cute cowgirls!
